    What about 1000-1 for Us Aussies for the great white Flake(shark), will be a great effort to make to cut as it is

    33/1 is 2.94% x2 5.88
    40/1 is 2.44% x4 9.76
    50/1 is 1.96% x4 7.84
    66/1 is 1.49% x8 11.92

    add those, get 35.4%. Add a few more percent for longshots, you're above 40%.

    So a little value on Field, but not a ton.

    Favorites like Woods and Mickelson have zero value here.

    The list should have been extended.... I really like Lee Westwood, Henrik Stensen, and Andres Romero. I put 20 bucks on Westwood at 50-1 and he is very live to win this thing.

    The field is too wide on golf, I'd never bet it.

    Tiger with a weak day today and I doubt he wins.

    He was down by 5 strokes at Bay Hill on the final day. And Tiger is known for having bad Fridays.

    well you can't rule him out, I just have him nowhere near the favorite role now.

    Cabrera, Perry, Campbell, Furyk, and Stricker lead. One of those will likely win.
